Water saving freebies

Most Water Compaies are offering free water saving devices. I sent for a gubbins that is put in your cistern to save water when you flush.

However, they are only useful for those cisterns that hold 7 litres or more and do not have a dual flush system. This info is not available when you order one from your local provider.

    You could do that with a brick. :D

    Putting pretty much any solid object in a cistern will save you water, all you need to do is reduce the capacity of the tank.

    I'm not sure of the point of this - is it to advertise the freebie, or complain that it didn't work because the water co didn't know what sort of toilet cistern the op had.
    What does the OP want, compensation because a freebie didn't work:rotfl:

    I think it was just to post a deliberately off topic thread here.

    Little trousers and all that ... :cool:
